I call this the Unconventional Yearling. In real life, this little filly had the strangest coloring, a dark bay roan, with tan points. I began to draw her with blue paint on the support, and this followed. She has a mind of her own! She wanted to be this way, truly she did!
She seemed really cute and full of personality when I finished her, kind of like she could come to life and be a real horse!
It's so relaxing and interesting to paint in an unconventional way. Kind of challenges my brain to create something new, and make it work.
Hope you enjoyed the Unconventional Yearling. She's for sale in my etsy shop for $35.
